Nvidia is never pricing their GPU's this cheap again.
If we can price people out of PC hardware then they have to subscribe to the global botnet.
If they leave enough margin for a competitor to get over initial startup costs, the price will be brought down due to competition.
>>109897554if amd cant really compete with them i dont think a new player could
It's inevitable this would happen as soon as someone found a use for these things that wasn't just bing bing wahoo.
tfw I have a 5090 and wonder when the best time is to sell
>>109897569They have been used for more than just games since their conception though.
>>109897591Good luck selling it and not getting scammed
>>109897569GPUs have been used for 3D rendering for years before the AI boom.
GPUs are overrated to hell. Do you nerds also orgasm over NVME drives and sound cards too? Because they're PCIE devices as well.
I hate this world so fucking much.
>>109897760>do you nerds also orgasm over NVME drivesyes
>>1098977243D rendering is just bing bing wahoo without the interaction
>>109897569GPU's are good at anything related to vector calculations. They have been used for many applications other than games (particle simulations, protein folding etc.) for a long time. The price spikes started when crypto mining became profitable, then this current forced "AI boom" has made it even worse.Prices wont drop until CHINA forces their way into the market and starts undercutting.
>>109897534Yup I'm buying now. In 5 years. This thing is going to be worth 30k.
I'm also going to be paying for initial upfront cost by bundling my GPUs compute into a securitized investment vehicle. It is going to pay for itself.
>>109897567Everyone jerks off about how Lisa and Jensen are cousins but it wouldn't be the first (or last) time that AMD leapfrogged and embarrassed Nvidia while they were resting on their laurels.
>>109897724You can show a scene rendered on one GPU to a million people. A million people want to play their own game they don't want to watch one guy play. Actually not true but you get my point.
>>109897760Forget nand, I think optane ssds are hot as hell, yeah
>>109897534>10 000 shoppers added it to their cartsadding an item is literally free
>>109897841I mean the RTX 50 series is dogshit, barely any perf / W improvement, 5090 has the only real perf improvement in the gen and that's because it's bigger and uses more power, that's true enough, but I don't think you can say they're really resting on their laurels.The previous gen was a massive performance & efficiency leap, 1 dud generation isn't necessarily enough time for AMD to leapfrog them. It's not like the Ryzen situation where Intel just delivered quad cores with <5% performance difference over and over and over.
>>109897764why?>>109897534I don't understand owning one of these gpus. There will always be pay per hour, or credit like openrouter and stuff to accomplish what you want. And you can just use a 4060ti if you want local. it'll just be slower but you avoid - $4000
>>109897550It's gonna be bad for them when they realize it doesn't actually work out that way.
>>109897534why dont gpu maker just probe the market like how scalpers do it?sell at ultra ridiculousslash price and try again until enough peorle willing to buy
>>109897983why would 10,000 people do that if they didn't intend to buy it?
>>109897534>shoppersbots
>>109898143How is value determined.
>>109898056>1 dud generation isn't necessarily enough time for AMD to leapfrog themThat's been enough in the past. It's usually transient and lights a fire under Nvidia's ass to actually give half a fuck, but it's not Nvidia's first dud generation either.>but I don't think you can say they're really resting on their laurels.You look at how much money they're raking in right now and tell me they care enough to put the work in for 60-series.
>>109897534We're gonna have fully software rendered games in a few years.Better start learning already about those edge functions, how to bin the triangles and optimizing fixed point math.
>>109897593Wrong. Up until the inception of CUDA GPUs only did 3D graphics acceleration and nothing else. There are some old papers of some PhD madlads hacking old GPUs that were only designed to draw 3D graphics to massively accelerate compute tasks.
You guys just don't get it1 in 9 Americans is a millionaire now, up from 1 in 10. That is 38 million peopleselling 10,000 5090s isn't that impressive That's the market they don't care or need to care about 300 million other poorfags who could never afford it
>scalpers and ai companies bot-buy them instantly because nvidia refuses to do anything logical like lock down their aijeet shit to the actual workstation cards
I saw it for 3,600 at Walmart a few days ago. Maybe I should have tried to flip it since I already have one I bought for $2,300 when it came out.
>>109897534>10,000 shoppersWHO ARE THESE PEOPLE?
>>109898317Doom 3 in software rendering runs at 1080p 60fps on a modern Ryzen or Intel CPU. We could legitimately get some good experiences out of software rendering these days
>>109897534Well all the big AI firms will eventually swap over to Google TFU's like Meta are doing already. But there will still be plenty of smaller AI firms using the less efficient but more widely supported GPU's with CUDA.
>>109898333This. Anyone who has any assets is a millionaire. Stocks, real estate, etc. If you're a wagie with nothing, you're getting left behind.
This prophecy will come true just like the 5k price tag came true.5090 will be 20k next year and the used market will have zero cards regardless of their absurd prices, because Chinks will buy them all up and that's just the Chink angle.Real fomo among the general public hasn't even properly started yet either, because only recently people have started accepting that the market is in fact fucked for many years to come.If you need to buy something then bite the bullet and get it now.
>>109898685I hope my 4090 can be repaired if it fails...24GB isn't even nearly enough...
I can see a case for a company to make a GPU 80-90% as good as nvidia for 50% the price, especially if we see some relief in the RAM market in the next few years. Starting up a chip manufacturing operation takes years of lead-time so it really depends on if Nvidia decides to keep the markup for the 60 and 70 series.
>>109898685> expected to reach $20k by octoberIs that shopped, or did the site change its headline in the meantime? Cause it's saying> prices approach $10kinstead rn, pic related.
And I thought that applefags were mentally ill
